Actually, in the app. I have developed, not a lot of lines ; currently  
I think the max is in the app. I maid for a friend of mine who is a  
physician; a couple of months ago it was about 500 lines, could be  
600. So there is practically no waiting time.
Up to now I don't need to use databases ; stacks are my datebases ;-)  
but I know I have to learn about this stuff (among a lot of others ;-)))

Well, I just tried with 5500 lines in the field "bigField" (each is as  
follow : one word,one number)
Actually, it is the list of the different words I found since I began  
to play "JQ Boogle", ;-)))
(It is the game developed by Jacque Landman Gay (that she offers on  
her site).

Each line includes a word and the number of times it was found (ex :  
TEA,286 - FILTERED,1 ;-).

The searching time I found when typing a first char is in seconds (the  
max was between 4 and 5 sec. for the letters T and S for example)
After, for the second character, sometimes about 1 sec, most often  
several hundred milliseconds
And from the third character to the last, insignifiant.

Best regards from Grenoble
